The new Village Books & Music store by Friends of the Library of Hawai‘i opened to the public on Saturday, February 27, 2021. Thousands of books, CDs, DVDs, vinyl records, games, works of art, and much more are available for sale!
The store is conveniently located at the former Pier 1 Imports space at 1142 Auahi Street, Honolulu. Ample parking is available in the adjacent structure.
Generously sponsored by Ward Village and Hawai‘i State Federal Credit Union, the store will be open until June 2021, giving book and music lovers three months to browse our collections. Inventory will be restocked daily and rotated periodically. Please check back often for new items.

Visit
No reservation is necessary. Because weekends are busier, you may make a reservation on the weekend. If you know what time you want to come, make a weekend reservation using the form below. Due to pandemic restrictions, capacity at the store will be limited to 75.
If you just want to stop by when you have time, you can do that too! We have not been reaching capacity on weekdays so no reservation is needed and there should be no line.
Safety
All patrons must wear a face mask and a temperature check will be conducted upon entry. No exceptions. Hand sanitizer will be available at the entry.
